Akame Ga Kill: The Demon King

Chapter 7 - Invitation Accepted

"Well there you are handsome." Said a voice coming from behind Zander. He frowned as he thought about the comment.

"What do you want?" He snarled as he leaned his head back over the back of the chair. His head went right into her cleavage as he saw Leone. "Oh I didn't think you liked me that much." She says seductively while pulling down Zander's hood and began to play with his hair when he sat up. "My boss wanted me to inform you that we are giving you a chance to join Night Raid." She said whispering in his ear as she took the bottle of bourbon infront of him and wrapped her arms around his neck loosely and very seductively.

He grabbed her wrist then moved them into the woods outside of town. She looked around to see all of the members of Night Raid with her. Who had been hiding outside the tavern. She looked up to see Zander sat on a branch of large tree.

"So you want me to join your group of assassins?" He asks as he touched the tree incinerating it. "Yes. We have the same goal." Najenda said stepping forward as he landed on the ground. "Really? What goal is that?" "To bring down the empire."

As she said this a pack of S-Class danger beast wolves walk out of the tree line surrounding them. "Yes but that is where we end similarities. Y'all have the rebellion and many people backing you to take down the minister and rebuild the empire to be better." He said as the wolves came closer. "I just want to see burnt to the ground."

"Why is that? Because of your father?" Najenda asked and He laughed. "Ask Bulat if I remember his name correctly. If he knows about what happen 13 years ago he knows why I did what I did." Zander said as he turned. "If you are as strong as you seem you can handle the wolves." He said then the Wolves began to attack.

-xXx-

Several hours later Night Raid walked back onto their base. They were all covered in blood and sweat under their destroyed clothes. "Alright everyone take a bath and get your wounds checked up. After Bulat will let us in on the secret." Najenda said taking off her shredded jacket.

"Lubbock stop starring at the boss." Bulat said as he headed to the bath "Well there you are handsome." Bulat said seeing Lubbock staring at Najenda through a crack in the curtain door. Sudden a fist came through the curtain hitting him in the throat as Najenda was taking off her bra blocking his view. "Pervert." Lione said as she passed by on the other side of the curtain. "Come on let's get your wounds cleaned up." Bulat said dragging the unconscious Lubbock away down the hall.

"So Bulat please explain what the happened 13 years ago that would give the Demon King to want to destroy the capital?" Najenda asked as she sat down in a large chair located in a large meeting room. She wore a tight black cut tank top that matched her jeans and metal right arm.

Bulat sighed as he leaned against the wall and began to tell everyone what happened. "So the empire really didn't want the public to know about it but now the cat is out the bag." She said as he finished.

"Shit! Intruders!" Lubbock yelled as he felt his cross tails base perimeter strings being broken. "How many?" "6 no 8! Southwest sector." "Alright Night Raid eliminate the threat." Najenda ordered as she lit a cigarette.

After he was sure they left Zander walked through the door next to Najenda grabbing a cigarette out of her jacket pocket. She jumped up as she first saw him then realized it was him. "How did you find our base?" "Well it's called tracking. Have you not hear of it? I learned it from hunting in the country." He said being a smartass as he sat on the large table infront of her chair and lit the cigarette.

"Well have you thought about my proposal?" She asked when flicked her first cigarette and lit a new one.

"Yes I have and I will only if one condition can be made." Zander answers blowing out smoke. "What do you need?" "The rebellion needs to protect my village from the empire since they know I'm here now. They will probably attack it and kill everyone there."

She stayed silent for a minute in thought then said. "Its doable I'll call headquarters and have it arranged." "Ok. I'll be staying here then." "Very well do you need a tour?" "No I walked around when y'all were bathing. Oh and you have a nice rack." He said with a smirk. "If I catch you peeking I will kill you." She said as he walked toward the door and he replied. "You never will."

"Those tribal assassins are always so pesky." Mine says when the group returns to base and walks into the hallway as a shadowy figure walks out of the meeting room. "Intruder!" Bulat yelled as he summoned Incursio and lunged at the figure spear in hand.

"What is going on!?" He yelled out as he froze infront of the figure.

"It's the flaw in most of imperial arms. The souls of the danger beasts they were made from are still alive." Zander says revealing himself to be the figure as he snaps his fingers and Incursio launches Bulat out of the armor back at Lubbock throwing them into the wall then shifts revealing the soul of Incursio.

"My King." It says in a deep growly voice as it kneeled at his feet. "You can shift back Tryant." Zander tells it then catches the Incursio sword and spins it in his hand before tossing it to Bulat who stood up then walks down the hall.

"He is getting more and more interesting my the minute." Leone thought biting her bottom lip as she watched him walk away.

-xXx-

The next day Esdeath sat at her desk looking out onto the city. "General Esdeath. The last recruits for the special squad has arrived. "Ok thank you." She said as she stood up.

Tatsumi sat at a large conference table with his new friend Run. They had met the day before when discovered that they both wanted the same thing to fix the empire from the inside. So they joined the army together and found that morning they were placed into a special unit.

There was four other people sitting at the table. A muscular man wearing an incendiary squad mask sat silent next to Run. Across from him a girl with auburn hair, amber eyes and mechanical arms with a small white dog looking animal in her l.a.p, then across from Tatsumi and Run sat Wave he had introduced himself when they arrived. Next to him sat a short girl maybe 15 years old with short black hair eating out of a bag of cookies.

"So what's all your names?" Wave asked trying to break the silence. "Mine is Seryu." Seryu said with a big smile. "My name is Bols." Said the man wearing the incendiary squad mask. "Kurome." The girl eating the cookies said monotony before eating another cookie.

The door of the room opens and a woman wearing a mask walks in follow by 3 men wearing black military uniforms.

Wave stood up to greet the masked woman. "Hello I'm..." Before he could say anything else she kicked him in the gut and throwing him into the table knocking him unconscious.

"It's Night Raid!" The girl with auburn hair yelled as they all stood up.

Kurome lunged at the woman drawing her sword. Her sword was deflected by a ice sword then Kurome spun around tapping the mask. The mask falls apart revealing Esdeath's face, who begins laughing. "Good job Kurome. If you didn't show restraint I might have been cut." She said as she patted Kurome's head. "General Esdeath." The group said saluting her.

"From today forward you all are now part of the Jaegers. Our mission is to hunt down Night Raid and eliminate them. Most of you have all been chosen from the elite of imperial arms users in the Empire." Esdeath says as she leans against the edge of the table.

"General Esdeath why was I chosen for the Jaegers? I just joined the army yesterday?" Tatsumi asked as they finished the introductions and everyone left.

"During you examination the instructors watch you carefully and think at you will be an excellent solider in every aspect. If you have the right training. That is why you will be trained by me, the three beasts and the Jaegers without a imperial arms. Then you can become a hero in the capital and make unimaginable wealth. I will leave you sometime to make your choice." Esdeath says as she opens the door

"I don't need time. I want to do it." Tatsumi says instantly. Esdeath smiles devilishly when she hears this. "Ok your training starts tomorrow morning."
